摘要:
A spark plug for an internal combustion engine comprises (a) an insulator surrounding a central electrode and (b) a housing having a grounded electrode and disposed on the periphery of the insulator. A taper-nose portion of the insulator, which is designed to be exposed to unburnt carbon in combustion gases of a combustion chamber, is modified to facilitate carbon removal from the taper-nose portion and to maintain excellent electrical insulation. The modification comprises a coating of a mixture of vanadium oxide and zirconium oxide in the form of a porous layer or a sponge-like porous layer having an irregularly-shaped structure with pores; it is fixed to the exposed surface of the taper-nose portion to improve the self-cleaning ability of the spark plug without decreasing the degree of electrical insulation provided by the insulator. The coating of the mixture having the porous structure is formed by applying a suspension of the mixture to the taper-nose portion of the spark plug and by drying the same in situ. The resulting coating is then heated further to obtain a more adherent coating of increased durability and better self-cleaning ability.

A spark plug, wherein a central electrode is electrically insulated from anuter electrically-conductive casing (ground to an internal combustion engine when in use) by an insulator sealed in the casing, separating the central electrode from the casing and having a taper-nose portion which is designed to be exposed to unburnt carbon in combustion gases of a combustion chamber, is modified to facilitate carbon removal from the taper-nose portion. Discrete isolated particles or isolated aggregates of particles of vanadium oxide are adhered over the exposed surface of the taper-nose portion to improve the self-cleaning ability of the spark plug without decreasing the degree of electrical insulation provided by the insulator. The particles of vanadium oxide are formed from a suspension which is applied to the surface of the taper-nose portion of the spark plug. The resulting coating is then dried in situ. Further heating results in having vanadium oxide particles, in insular form, firmly adhered to the surface of the taper-nose portion.

摘要:
An amorphous refractory composition comprising a petroleum-derived binder prepared by feeding a fraction boiling at not lower than 150.degree. C. obtained by thermal or steam cracking of petroleum-derived hydrocarbons, into a first-step agitating vessel where the fraction is heat treated under specific conditions, feeding the thus heat treated fraction into a second-step agitating vessel where it is heat treated under specific conditions and then removing the light fraction from the further heat treated fraction thereby to obtain the petroleum-derived binder.

Provided is a hair cosmetic composition, which contains the following components (A) and (B):(A) a hydroxy-free tricarboxylic acid having from 4 to 20 carbon atoms in total, or salt thereof, and (B) at least one or more organic solvents selected from the group consisting of aromatic alcohols, N-alkylpyrrolidones, alkylene carbonates, polypropylene glycols, lactones and cyclic ketones, wherein the organic solvent has a ClogP of from −2 to 3; and wherein the hair cosmetic composition has a pH of from 2 to 5 at 25° C. when diluted to 20 times the weight with water. Provided also is a hair quality improving method which comprises treating the hair with the hair cosmetic composition.The hair cosmetic composition of the present invention can for example give strength/body, manageability, and set retention property to the hair which is apt to be dry and moistureless owing to the damage by coloring, permanent waving, or repetition of excessive blow drying.
摘要:
The invention relates to wrinkling modifiers and anti-aging cosmetic compositions which each comprise a guanidine derivative represented by the following general formula (1): wherein is a heterocyclic group selected from azetidine, pyrrolidine, piperidine, piperazine or morpholine, and R1 and R2 are the same or different from each other and independently a hydrogen atom, or an alkyl, hydroxyl, hydroxyalkyl, carboxyl, carboxyalkyl or amidino group, or a salt thereof. The cosmetic compositions are excellent in the effects of suppressing wrinkling and of removing wrinkles and give users a pleasant feeling upon use.
